Birthday Bash in Big Spring

Leslie and I surprised my mom this weekend by showing up on her doorstep to wish her a Happy Birthday! Fortunately, she didn't send us away, LOL. So, we took her to one of her favorite restaurants in Midland, Olive Garden. Then off to an ice cream shop for a birthday scoop. Then, the grand finale... James Avery to let her pick out a pair of earrings. She has them on in these photos. We spent the evening with her at her apartment. We all had a great time. I updated her internet security software, so hopefully she'll be good to go for another year. We spent the morning with her before heading back to Houston on Sunday. I don't understand how Texas gets bigger every time I make that trip! Texas is huge!

I'm back!!!

I am back from Shady Creek. I had lots of fun and learned a lot. I got to play Ultimate Frisbee.

I also got to play a huge game of capture the flag with about 50 to 60 people. I learned that a newt is very poisonous. In a bird class my class found 18 species of birds. I had eight people in my cabin and my counselors name was Marco Polo. Thank you Samuel family, Nana and Papa, Rzepecki family, Aunt Carol and Uncle Patrick[AKA the green coach] for writing to me while I was at camp. Love Quillan.
